Description

This course has an emphasis on psychological and social learning dimensions relevant to learning and supervision and therefore focuses on the cognitive and personal factors of how people learn, instructor/student relationships, case based learning, reflective practice and critical thinking, providing feedback, and encouraging self evaluation in working with small groups. Participants are required to critically review the literature in this area, demonstrate its application to teaching sessions, and present findings to the group. The course content can be applied equally to student and peer teaching, or to patient education.

This course has been designed to provide a link to and preparation for those planning to move into specialist educator roles in simulation environments (and perhaps undertaking the Boston training offered at CDHB simulation unit) and/or as interprofessional educators within collaborative teams in clinical and/or academic environments.

Learning Outcomes

In brief at the end of the course participants will be able to:
 explore current themes and methodologies in health professional education and supervision, and critically review one of these.
 take a position on a contested or an emerging theme in clinical teaching and supervision and assess the implication for own practice and emerging identity as an educator.
 identify and propose solutions to problems encountered by supervisors and tutors when organising and delivering clinical learning and supervision (from access to suitable experiences to issues of wellbeing and engagement)
 develop a range of teaching and supervision skills and learner support strategies e.g. role modelling, coaching for patient safety and critical thinking, supervising in collaborative interprofessional teams, feedback to develop self - directed learners.
